We took a short trip on Monday and returned Tuesday so I’m feeling a bit refreshed. The visit to the Rocky Gap resort was fun and relaxing. We hiked several miles along the Lakeside Loop Trail. We had some good steaks for dinner. We spent some time in the casino and came out only down $10. Normally we walk out winners but not this time.

The drive there was sunny and pleasant. The drive home, not so much.

It’s a beautiful place to stay. We had a room on the 4th floor overlooking the lake.

Hiking around the lake and that is what we did on Monday while the weather was nice. We lost the sun to the cloud’s midafternoon and the nice breeze we had at the start faded. I’m glad we are both healthy enough to get out and hike a little bit.
